You have a Gen 4 or Gen 5 read ?

gen4 is split into two separate files for a full read.
the BL and then the rest of the data is split by a chunk of ram address ranges.

Please post what you have. Interested to see how much different it is from Gen 2

Here is a few dumps for gen 4 VAG units, I have every flash of every Gen 2 to 4 Haldex unit ever made for VAG, Landrover, Ford, Volvo.

I am not a software type guy, or a remapper, but I do know the actual PCB and hardware inside and out, I have drawn it all out.

Don't know if I can really be of any use in any of this, but I keep an eye on this thread as finding people who tinker with haldex controllers is pretty niche.

I dump them as one long file, and I dump them from the BDM pins on the board.

0-8000 is the first part of the flash/boot loader
then 8000 -  18000 is the "hole" - e.g. the memory
then 18000 onward is the actual flash

When I write the file back, I write the first 0-8000 first, then the 18000 onward section.

I have just discovered the security login pin for the Gen 2 and Gen 4 units today, using a brute force method, it has taken a good few days getting 2 tries every 3.5 seconds.

On the Gen5 controller the checksum is just an Add16. In order to read/write the newer controllers you need to write a loader or vr_read. I can help if someone wants to upload a G5 full read so I can solve the seed/key.

I can't help with a Gen 5 read, as I have not done one yet, but very interested in making it happen. And knowledge that may push this forward is very much appreciated from anyone.

So far I have worked out these points for the JTAG interface.



And bought a mini wiggler, because it was all I found when researching trying to read and write XC2734 but things have got in the way and it is still in its box Sad During this lock down I will try and get this freed from its box and maybe working.



Excellent. I am keen to start reading/writing to Gen 4 soon. Everything has stopped with the Lockdown...



But I have plenty to test / dump / break so open to ideas.

 Cheesy I'm not admitting anything guv!

But I did stay up till 4am last night - not coughing to death - just trying to get that damn miniwiggler to wiggle just right for me.

Without success though, it will not detect the XC2734, I'm doing something wrong somewhere.

Got the software all running Ok, i'm just missing something on the board connections. I have no idea what I'm doing with JTAG.

To be fair, I never know what I'm doing, but enough late nights tends to prevail in success and an education at the same time.

Anyone have any half clues?

Why dont you access the pins direct @ the chip? Is it too small for needles?

Pin5 is your orange pin according to data sheet for example.

As Dave Jones would say "We're in like Flynn" !!

Oh my, the miniwiggler has connected and detected the XC2000 Family device.

And a 0ay907554f flash.

I tried to write the data from one onto the other, but I did something stupid!

I erased it first, ready to rewrite it. Then rebooted it.

But the JTAG Debug mode runs from the flash. If you erase it you can no longer connect to it because the boot loader has just been erased.

That's bricked one then! Lesson No 1, do not erase the bootloader  Cheesy

These Gen 5 Haldex controllers are also the same as the Golf GTi "VAQ" E-diff controller. I will dump one of those next.
